Desert Breath - Art Installation in the Sahara Desert

Nature is amazing, and here is an art installation to prove it! There's nothing like digging 

and sculpting in the sand, but this is taking it to the extreme...

'Desert Breath' is located near the Red Sea in El Gouna, Egypt. It is an impossibly immense land art installation dug into the sands of the Sahara desert by the D.A.S.T. Art Team back in 1997. The artwork was a collaborative effort spanning two years between installation artist Danae Stratou, industrial designer Alexandra Stratou, and architect Stella Constantinides, covering an area of about 1 million square feet. Wowee!

A Ballot Box House, Italy

Head over here to read about this fascinating space in Florence, Italy - transformed from an industrial warehouse into a vibrant residential loft, in part using 300 wooden ballet boxes from the 1940's. Up-cycling at it's best! The loft is now the perfect mix of clean white lines and rustic weathered surfaces, serving as a backdrop to the owners eclectic mix of artwork, colourful glass collection and vintage furniture and finds.
